The Walhalla Courier, Of last week, says:
s.While in Anderson last week we saw a
curiosity in the way of hog. Charles
Caldwell, colored, has Jersey SOW, We
are satisfied, will weigh over 500 pounds.
She had three pigs four weeks old, which
he had contracted off at $3.50 each, and
said he had a standing offer of $50 cash for
the SOW. She once farrowed II pigs, but
is now kept too fat. He had two barrows
from her II months old the 9th of this
month, which now will net over 500
pounds each. They were shoats when we
were in Anderson last spring. An open
SOW of the same litter will weigh about
500 pounds gross. They are curiosity in
the hog line, as showing what can be done
by attention. The owner told US it took
very little to feed them. They are of the
red Jersey variety"
